Re: SER1 Hi Low gear change

Hi Tom,

I know.  Right now it's the little bit about 'push back into high range
and the yellow knob should pop up' that doesn't work -- just before
reaching high range the floor lever stops solid.  The interlock lever
doesn't come free and, even after you lift it manually (remove floor
first!) the shift rod doesn't move without assistance (the large
screwdriver!).

Like Alyn said, it started out stiff and got progressively stiffer until
nothing at all.
